I Fancied You Until I Saw You Yawn

A collection of short, dark and spectacularly funny poetry that explores an alternative view of modern life. From using the cash machine, to sitting on the loo, "I fancied you until I saw you yawn" will take you on a journey you'll never forget. Brace yourself for the ride of your life!Julia is a young, whimsical story about an outcast named Elliot who wants nothing more than to have a true friend. When he meets Julia, he feels he has finally found one. But Julia is not all that she seems.This story is aimed at a young adult readership and deals with themes such as loneliness, desperation and friendship as Elliot struggles to find his place amongst his peers. It attempts to capture the innocence of childhood friendship and the intense emotions children feel in relation to growth and belonging in their own small worlds.I hope it may encourage younger readers to consider the importance of valuing the relationships they have in their lives, and to appreciate the people they have around them as they grow.
